While it's an interesting idea, it'd take a full day to get up there and back, so he wouldn't be down here campaigning; The only media would be those he brought with him or maybe he could fly some in from Wasilla, but it'd take them most of a day for a roundtrip and it'd have to be done at campaign expense.

While there, the media might talk to some people and find out that there's a lot of traffic in and out of that airport and across the ferry, so an argument can be made for some kind of solution and I'm sure the locals are willing to provide it.

But, most of all, the single issue that has defined John McCain's political life has been his never-ending fight against earmarks. I don't know if he's the one who coined the term "bridge to nowhere", but he actively opposed it and as I argued in a post back during the primary season, McCain's position on earmarks is easier for the average person to understand, so on that issue, he might possibly have the better hand.

I understand the symbolism of a "ticket to nowhere", but it'd be a costly endeavor that'd probably just end up highlighting one of McCain's strengths and Palin's really not worth the effort. In my opinion, it'd be better to just keep saying "for it, before she was against it" because Rove & Co. have already entered the phrase into the lexicon.
